  • Technically yes, with perfect or near-perfect management, we could double our population and minimize the damage. But realistically, our resource usage will certainly continue at a rate similar to or more than it is now.

    The good thing is, birth rates are proportional to available resources, quality of life, and education; and birthrates globally are already on a decline in non-developing countries. Low birthrates have negative implications on society, but for the planet as a whole, less humans are a good thing






  • Is there a particular reason you can’t use apt here?

    It’s always preferable to stick with repo packages unless absolutely necessary, because performing a manual install could place your system into an unsupported state or prevent apt from updating it later, which can lead to issues especially if that package is something core like bash.

    Ah, I didn’t recognize the username. My previous comments were on mobile, so I didn’t have both pages open to draw the comparison. Now, I’m not looking to contribute toward giving you more grief than you’ve already gotten, I’m basically just expressing an opinion on the situation and that’s about it. So I’ll justify my opinion a little, but leave it at that.

    I would agree that originally, asking him how you should phrase the notice was a good gesture. He suggests “‘This user requested their work be removed from this web site.’ And then link it to this issue?”

    Then you respond and recommend “BurntSushi disagrees with sneering at cryptocurrencies, and in protest asked his crates to be removed.” in which, while he did say something to that effect, and that is related to the reason, you asked him what he wanted and then completely disregarded his wish to recommend a more snarky message.

    BurntSushi actually responds and gives an okay to a more accurate version of what he said.

    Then you respond with “[…] so I plan to develop “making a stance for cryptocurrencies” dedicated feature and move both of you there. […]”

    And I read the first portion of how BurntSushi responded to that, and stopped at about that point because the whole thing seemed asinine. It would appear to me that you made him out to be the party in the wrong throughout the entire exchange to that point because he didn’t want to take part in your site.
